Usually it happens to me with DVD's. I bought the Wolverine and the X-men season box set twice, for example. I must have gotten it back when it first came out, put it on my shelf to gather dust for a few months, and forgot. Then I see it for a nice price a few months later and buy it again.

Back to Icons. They've done Iron Man, Captain America (both with and without mask), Hulk, Phoenix (green and red), and Spider-man. I know there's been others.

A buddy of mine would use them as custom fodder for large Legends Characters. He turned Hulk into a Surtur, for example.

Kinda like how Hasbro is using them as a base for a lot of their Gigantic Battles figures like Bill Foster or Giant-man.

I have a bunch of these, but have been disappointed overall. They look fantastic! But the quality can be iffy.

My Toy Biz Icons had flimsy and/or warped joints.

Hasbro fixed the joints, but to the point where they would barely move. It was so bad with Daredevil, Nightcrawler and Colossus (and to a lesser extent, Phoenix) that I broke one Colossus and ended up returning the three of them (I kept Phoenix). I never opened Thor or Cyclops, so I don't know how their joints were. The Gigantic Battles have been a tad better, but I still need to use a paper towel and pliers to get the hips to swivel. A Gigantic Pain!

There is also an unmasked Wolverine (both of the Toy Biz Logans are Astonishing X-Men costume). the Hasbro Wolverine is a brown repaint of that figure in that same costume, which looks odd.

Masked Captain America was really hard to find! Unmasked seemed to be the regular version.

I forgot about Doom. I think I may have him MIP in the attic somewhere (which I will find when I do my attic cleanup and well past due toy purge).
